5 nights at Gila River View
This was one of the best places we've ever stayed! The host, Amber, was incredible and made sure we had everything we needed. The area is secluded and private and we never heard any noise other than nature. We loved that it's a working cattle ranch with horses, cattle, and pigs. The animals were all friendly and never bothered us. Oh, there was a very friendly barn cat that did snuggle with us a bunch! The camper was an amazing accommodation that offered everything we needed for an indoor experience and sleeping.
The hiking opportunities are endless here! With just a 10 minute hike you can be on the top of a mountain overlooking 2 different valleys that the Gila river runs through. In about a 20-25ish minute hike you can make it from the camp clear into a hidden valley on the back side and make it right up to a secret spot next to the Gila river. We spent half a day at this spot relaxing and enjoying the weather and nature!
It's about a 10 minute drive to the nearest town for any supplies or if you want a restaurant. We only went once to get more drinking water and we were back at camp within the hour!
We will definitely stay here again! We love the place and it's less than 2 hours from our house!

Thank you so much Amber! We appreciated everything you did to make our stay wonderful!

We had the BEST time camping at Ash Creek Canyon. It’s truly hard for me to find words or sum up our trip in a short paragraph. To put it simply, it feels like we only saw the tip of the iceberg as far as exploration goes in Chrysotile. We cannot wait to go back and learn and explore some more. Our stay was magical. Andy was a top-notch host, super accommodating with speedy correspondence, and truly just a pleasure to be around. His enthusiasm, love and awe for this land shined bright. He showed us around all of the land reachable via side-by-side and gave us a grand tour on the history of the abandoned mining town. There is so much to uncover there. Not only was the history fascinating, but the scenery was BEAUTIFUL… truly enchanting. We camped at site #2, Waterfall Pasture. We were perfectly secluded from other campers and felt like we had the whole area to ourselves.. which was great as we were camping with our two young daughters and three dogs (a rather loud bunch). We couldn’t have asked for a better weekend getaway, and cannot wait to come back. THANK YOU ANDY!

Camping here was amazing. There are two platforms but no one was booked when we were so we had it all to ourselves- very private. Everything was beautiful- we stared at the stars for hours. Great price too!

This place was absolutely beautiful! Clean restrooms and nice and warm/hot shower. Taylor was friendly and easy to communicate with, Getting here was a breeze. I will say if you want a completely quiet stay or if you’re a light sleeper this place might not be for you since you can hear cars as they’re driving by. But 10/10 recommend!!!

We both enjoyed camping at Cactus Forest. The views were wonderful and being able to see the stars. Love the property and it was closed to Casa Grande Ruins National Monument
I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to be close to a historical monument and a Boondocking experience!
We plan to stay here again in another overlanding trip. Thank you to hosts

Lovely and secluded desert oasis exactly as advertised for road weary travelers. Enjoyed the seclusion, dark night sky and close proximity to Tucson. Highly recommended for its minimalism and desert maximalism.

We enjoyed our stay in the desert at Cactus Forest. It’s in the middle of the desert, and the afternoons are hot, but when we use our camper as shade, the temps were cool and breezy. We enjoyed walking our dog along the dirt road, and didn’t experience any stickers! The evenings are cool, and there is a big sky above…..A perfect spot to stop for the night😍

Super private and beautiful location. It was awesome to be able to see all the stars at night. The place was clean and cozy and perfect for what we needed. I do recommend bringing extra lighting, if you want to move around at night. Thankfully we did. I would return

Loved this secluded canyon! Met Andrew by the highway, which was already way out there, then followed him on his quad in my 21' class-B van for 3 or 4 miles to campsite #2. Dislodged my low hanging generator on the rough road, but I knew it was a risk. Well worth it. This property had absolutely no noise or light pollution. It was an old mining town with several old mines still open to explore. I had an unforgettable few days secluded on this property. Zero cellular coverage with Verizon and Wi-Fi wasn't on while I was there. I thoroughly enjoyed my unplugged time. I will definitely be returning.

I enjoyed my brief stay at Weary Traveler Haven and definitely plan to book again when I need a great place away from the city to star-gaze. Booked this stay to watch the Orionid meteor shower and was not disappointed. The tent platform was the ideal place to lay back and watch the sunset and meteor shower and then sunrise the next morning. I also appreciated the fire pit with its included grill. And it was incredibly nice having a clean and conveniently located restroom within easy walking distance from the camping spot. The location of this hipcamp spot was easy to get to, the instructions were simple to follow, and I was greeted shortly after my arrival with the fresh loaf of sourdough I purchased from the hosts. They were unfortunately out of the jam, but promptly reimbursed me and sincerely apologized. If you can afford to, definitely treat yourself to a loaf. It was delicious. Communication with the hosts was also really easy and their responses back were quick and always friendly. There was a bit of construction going on close to the property which started early in the morning, but it didn't bother me much. Overall, I had an incredible time at this location and plan to book again in the future.

The hosts were very friendly and not only provided us with a wine tasting, but gave us a thorough tour of their wine making process.
We were invited to to hook up our RV to electricity and water, which always a plus on a warm day. Thank Dennis and Brie.

We loved the area and the campsite! Falling asleep to the sound of the creek next to us and waking up to the sun rising over the mountains made us wish we had booked a longer trip. Peaceful, private, and stunning. We came in after dark and Andrew met us at the gate, showed us to the site, and was available for anything we needed. 10/10 no notes. Will book again.

We absolutely loved our stay here! We were looking for somewhere beautiful and private to celebrate our anniversary and this exceeded our expectations. The tour at the start was so informative and we were able to find and explore all the places Andrew talked about. We spent quite a bit of time in Victory mine, found the underground waterfall, and hiked back to the swimming hole. He described the swimming hole as 'fairytale', and it truly was. We camped on the most beautiful site with amazing views of the canyon and towering bluffs. It was full moon and the site of that moon rising over the bluffs was breathtaking. This is truly one of the most beautiful, untouched places we have ever been and we hope to be back again someday.

…so I could give this place four thumbs up.
Here were my needs:
- flat ground
- open space
- dark skies
Outside of that, having never used Hipcamp before, I didn’t know what to hope for or expect. Boy am I glad I chose this place because aside from meeting my basic needs, it was BEAUTIFUL. The sunset and sunrise alone made it worth it. The seeing the saguaro in the morning was otherworldly. Suffice it to say, I’m definitely using Hipcamp again and DEFINITELY staying here next time I’m coming through AZ.
Thanks for everything!

This was a last-minute booking, and we’re so glad we chose Andrew’s place. He is a fantastic host who takes great pride in his land, his guests, and the history of what was once a thriving old mining town. Chrysotile is a stunning area with rich history, and our experience exceeded all expectations. We stayed at Site #1, which felt perfectly secluded for us. During our stay, we encountered an incredible variety of wildlife, including birds, deer, a skunk, and even a golden eagle.
A highlight of the trip was a tour of one of the mines led by Chad, Andrew's caretaker—it was truly special. Our campsite was next to a running creek, where we spent most of our time relaxing, and we ended our days by driving to a plateau to witness breathtaking sunsets. Unfortunately, we didn’t make it to any of the waterfalls on the property, but there’s always next time.
Andrew is putting so much effort into maintaining and sharing the beauty of this special place, and it shows. Just remember to pack light and take responsibility for packing out your waste to help preserve the canyon. If you’re looking for peace, solitude, and the chance to disconnect from the hustle and bustle, this is the perfect spot. Huge thanks to Andrew and Chad for being such wonderful hosts!
